THE - LONDON JOURNALS. i pt f DAILY EXTRACTS FROM THE MORNiNCI PAPERS, JUNE 3, 1826. [THE was.] The proclamation for the dissolution of Parliament has gone through the necessary forms, and will ap pear in the Gazette of this evening. This assembly, therefore, which has sat since the year 1820, and may be said to have got into its seventh year, the " three score and ten" of a Parliamentary life, is now defunct. —We should say, " thank God," if we might hope better things front its successor ; but, in reality, till Parliament is rendered more frequently responsible to the constituent body than it is at present, it is in vain to expect that. it shall be pure. It is not sufficient in this case to ask us, whether the electors are better than the eleted ; we answer, that no man loves in others those vices which he practises himself. A de praved father may read a' vicious son many a whole some lecture, and give him advice, the observance of which would save him. The expiring Parliament may be distigiguished as "the Joint Stock Parliament, from the number of its Members implicated in those swindling combinations called Joint Stock Companies, and from the additional circumstance, that the whole body of Parliament, in its aggregate capacity, did not think proper to inquire into those transactions, in which so great a portion of its Members were concern ed. In the dishonest) , which we do not control or punish, we participate. The South Sea Bubble was investigated by the Parliament of that day ; and so many of its Mem bers as were stained with the fraud, expelled the House. The celebrated Jewish historian Josephus relates, that while Titus was besieging the city of Jerusalem, and inflicting on its inhabitants those dreadful suffer ings which bad been predicted by unerring wisdom, they, regardless of the danger which pressed them from without, were persecuting each other with the most malignant fury, on account of 'religious differ ; till the foreign enemy broke in, and indiscri minately destroyed them all. In like manner, when tae Turks besieged Constantinople, the Christians without refused their aid to their brethren within, on account of some differences in their common faith which it is unnecessary here to specify, and the bar barbarous Musaulman triumphed. In like manner, religious question—we almost fear to name it—has been thrown down as a bone of contention among our countrymen at the ensuing election ; whilst the real enemy, that will inevitably devour us all, is the ex travagance of Government. Let electors, 6n this oc casion, but vote for the friend of retrenchment—pro vided he be a respectable man—and they will have done their duty to meet the real exigency of the time. In fact, it is obvious in what a situation we are placed at this moment as to our finances. When the agricultural interest is crying out " rob and ruin the national cre ditor ;" and the manufacturer replies, " rib, sink corn in value till the cultivator is on the verge of starv ing ;" let the cry and the exertion be, that Govern ment shall take its heavy hand from both of them, and reduce taxation to that point (which may be effected without ceasing to pay the interest of the national debt), that all may live. The only effort in the way of finance during the hot Session (and an infamous one it was) was an effort to burden the country with a new salary of five thousand a year ! [MOANING 1 - 11ZRALD.) In our account of the proceedings at the Mary k-bone Office on Tuesday, there appears one of those instances that frequently occur of the advantage of police reporting. If whatever, promotes the effective edministratiou of justice be serviceable to a country, the publicity which the daily papers give to examina tions at police-offices is of great national value and frequently happens, as in the case to which we immediately refer, that an offender, when first brought before the Magistrates, feels sufficient confi tience, in the apparent want of legal evidence against him, to defy his accuser, and challenge him to the proof ; but on being remanded for the purpose of ascertaining whether better evidence could he adduced to carry the charge beyond a mere case of suspicion, the publication of the report on the next day causes persons who have suffered by depredations similar to Those described, to come forward and try to identify the party. Deuce, numerous cases of imperfect accu sation are furnished with the evidence necessary to make out the presumption of guilt, which demands Out the party shall be put to answer before a Jury of the country. The career of practised and hardened offiinders is often by this means cut short, when, had it not been for the inquiry excited by the published reports, they must be let loose again on society until more daring or atrocious violations of the law placed them once more in the hands of justice. It is not therefore alone, because the spirit of the British Con stitution is averse to all secret and inquisitorial pro cewlings, that revorting should he encouraged ; but, i n addition to this sound principle in its favour, we cue, by constant experience, urge the practical bene fits 64 it produces, by eliciting from various quarters unexpected aids for the detection of guilt, or, as time times happens, for the establishment of innocence--a result still more dear to those who, with sound minds end pure consciences, perform the solemn duty of de ciding upon charges that involve the character, or affect the lives, of their fellow-creatures. It is not, perhaps, in all cases just to say that Magistrates and Judges who object to the publicity which the press throws on the administration of the laws, are actuated by corrupt or vicious motives; but, certainly, ,vhere there are such frequent and manifest proofs of the fiatheratice given to the cause ofjustice by the agency of reporting, the objections taken cannot be reconciled to any principle of reason or common sense. This nano.; jealousy must, however, become continually less prevalent—it cannot always resist the triumphant answer which experience gives to prejudice. [saw Timits.] i t i s not our intention, in ci speta • ng of Joint Stock Companies, to defend or to condemn them—much less are our observations meant to allude to any par ticular Company. We shall leave Lord Teynliam and I,fr. Hendricks, and all similarly circumstanced, in whatever alleged relation they happen to stand, whether as dupers or dupes, to settle their own dis putes ; and to adjust, in the best way they can, th e share of blame worthiness that may attach to iem selves and their partners. There is but one point to which we would direct the attention of our readers. How happens it that all the violent accusers of Dire°. tors antf Managers, Clerks, and Committees, h eve been so long e'er they commenced their vituperations? How comes it to pass that not one of them, even the most lynx-eyed, had perspicacity enough to perceive, that the foundation on which these Companies rested, was, in any respect unsound, until, like a structure, the foundation of which has made a good deal of noise of late, the building tumbled in the mud ? Why did they not bee that the bottom was sound, and the piles pro perly driven, before they began to build ? Were the Directors the only persona that were sanguine as to the reaults of these joint stock schemes ? Were the Ma nagers the only parties who looked forward to the probability of personal advantage Were none but the clerks stimulated by the hopes of profit ? Did the Subscribers, as well as their Committees, 'entertain some small hopes, that a few pickings might fall to their share ? Was it solely and wholly through the wiliness or the eloquence of their advocates that the share's of every scheme were so greedily caught up ? What right have the shareholders to suppose that they 'alone were heated, and that their respective , officers were cool ? Strike off half a dozen individuals, and what manager or director has made a farthing' more by the mania of the day than the ordinary subscribers ? —How thould they ? Generally speaking, they had a great deal more at stake ; while stock was up, few had wisdom enough to sell ; and when stoat got down, still fewer had power. We don't mean to deny that there were sharpers and gamblers mingled in the throng ; what throng was ever without them ? But, we say, and if the shareholders would but ; speak out, we are sure they would say the same, it was "the lust of wealth that never knows delay"—the aurisacra fames--that stimulated every mother's son of them, from the President to the porter. It is familiarly said, " ho may laugh that wins ;" but if be that loses may not laugh, that is no reason why he should cry. What purpose is served by meeting and speechifying ad in finitum ? Will twenty orations repay one shilling of lobs? When a person in trade has made a bad bar gain he puts it down to profit and loss, and resolves to make a better the next tune if he can. Why should not he who has made a bad Joint Stock bargain do the same ? One gentleman, at the meeting of the Milian Mining Company, is represented as saying, that the best way was to submit to the thing, and make no more fuss about it ; this is precisely the line of conduct which we should wish our best friend to follow in every case of irremediable loss. And what, but irremediable loss, do the greater part of these precious schemes present to Us ? We speak not, of course, of those Companies, which, being formed upon just principles, have nothing in common with their bubble-brothers, but the number of their part ners. But then, it is said, if public meetings serve no other purpose, they serve to expose the rogueries of agents and bawds. But even granting this conse quence—le jcu ne mut pas la chandelle—the advan tage does not balance the labour. It is quite a mis take to suppose, that the great mass of spectators sym pathise with the cheaters, less than with the cheated. We think it may be almost invariably observ4 that mankind are more inclined to praise a knave than to pity a fool. And how can any Shareholder talk of the delusions practised upon him, which now, that the public is awake and risen, appear so gross and palpable to the m eanes t c ap a city, with ou t feeling that he has once, at least, in his life acted the part of a very silly fellow. For our own parts we have not, and never had, the slightest connection, di rect, or indirect, with any of these plans, for which we consider ourselves indebted, not to our wisdom as suredly, but to our good fortune ; but, if we had hap pened to burn our fingers with any of them, we should have had cunning enough to wear gloves until they were. healed. In a word, where there exists a fea sible prospect of recovering their money, subscribers do right to try every means of recovery ; where there is none, they will do right to submit to their loss with a good grace, and console themselves with the old adage----" Levius fit patientia quicquid corrigere est nefas Whatever cannot be cured must be en dured." IBIt A HIM PACHA. The following sketch is of Ibrahim Pacha, the con queror of Missolonghi. We quote it from a French Paper which guarantees its authenticity : In stature Ibrahim is somewhat below mediocrity, his move ments approach a little to the grotesque, his deportment announces nothing grave or distinguished. At first sight there appears about him a character of mildness and gaiety which surprises you. Con ceive to yourself a small face and little grey eyes, all vivacity and even cheerfulness ; a mouth for ever smiling, and features always open and animated. Notwithstanding premature wrinkles which furrow his temples, and a hollowness about the exterior *ogle of his eye, his appear ance, still youthful, forms a striking contrast to his age—now thirty-seven. There is nothing about him announcing superior or even remarkable qualities. He is said to have been cruel to ferocity from his very ►earliest infancy, and his life proves it ; but I would defy a Lavater to distinguish in his countenance that feature by which it shall he ►nd►cated. I have seen him at a moment of ir ritation, and I can affirm that he has not the look of an homicide. Hie dress is simple, and h►e is only to be distinguished by the suite of officers who accompany him. In the camp his life is re gular and abstemious, he smokes and drinks coffee for ever. His tent is exceedingly simple, and in no way distinguished from that of other chiefs. Befo►e we proceed to speak of his character, it is important to observe, that the sou of Mahomet is affected by an intermittent disease of the brain, whose effects manifest themselves in convul sive motions and loud cries. It is asserted, and with probability, that after an attack he preserves for some time an invincible ta citurnity, and that then he is no longer the slime man ; hie errors, say they, are the effects of an imagination he cannot restrain. Ibrahi►u is as illiterate as his father, he has besides been con tinually led away from all serious application by a foridneas for women, which he cannot restrain, and to which the ►malady which torments him is Attributed. He does not want for pene tration, and will always hold his authority over those who are about him►, because ha despises them, and is singularly dis trustful. DlED.—After a very abort illness, at six o'clock on Tuesday Morning last, Edward Milne, Esq., of Manchester; and about seven in the evening of the same day, his brother, William Milne, Esq., in consequence of a paralytic attack, the immediate cause of which appeared to be the last sight he had just taken of his brother Edward's corpse. It shocked his feeling mind so much, that on leaving the room he exhibited marks of confusion, and became evidently paralysed ; lie however recovered a tittle, but very soon afterwards relapsed and expired. Im mediately after Edward's death, William wrote to his brother in London a very affecting letter, expresivo of his distress at the awful event ; and the same post which brought William's letter, brought one also from his brother Oswald, announcing William's death. The grief occasioned to their surviving brothers, sisters, and friend*, by so awful and unexpected visitation, is beyond de scription, and will affect the strongest.—“ In the midst of life we are in death l" ! a mop there ! a mop ! Very strange, very !—not five minutes ago that very man was laughing at another fur looking pale, "a few ;" and every step was a jump, as he trod the deck, with a—a—excuse me.--" lia‘rnt you better go below ?" said our Captain.—" —what should I go b e l ow f or ?"

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARLBOROUGH-STREET.---A ease of considerable im portance to householders was tried yesterday, It arose out of an information lodged against a Mr. Vaughan, in Porter -street, by the Com Missioners for the Pavement for the parish of St. Anne's, Soho. The information was laid under the 77th section of the aboVe-mentioned Act, and charged Mr. V. with refusing to take down a railing which runs before his house, and prevents the free circulation of air, and is otherwise injurious, so as to constitute it, in the opinion of Commissioners, a nuisance. Mr. Allen, the Vestry Clerk, in support of the information, stated the inconvenience of the railing, and prayed the Magistrates to authorise its removal. Mr. Anoimmus (to the Magistrate)—lf, by your deeision, the Commissioners are enabled to remove this railing, they may remove every one in London. Mr. ADOLPHUS—How long have you known the railing to be before the house ? Mr. Reynolds—Thirty years. Mr. Anocenue—Was there ever a pavement where the railing now is ?—Mr. Reynolds—No. _ _ Mr. CONANT—Li there au area ?—Mr. Vaughan—Yea. Mr. R4trolds—That is what make it an obstruction. • Mr. Anox.mus—You think it would be a great convenience to to the passengers, but say nothing of the couaequence to Mr. Vaegluui. Mr. Reynolds—lt would be a convenience to him. Ile could get more light. Mr. M'Owen said, the railing way only erected seven years before. Mr: A noLenos--,Mr. Vaughan applied to the Commissioners to know if they had any objection. They visited the street, and ac ceded to his request, to erect what they now designated& nuisance. Mr. M'Owen insisted that the alteration would be to Mr. Vaughan's advantage After some lucre discussion, Mr. CONANT said, he and another Magistrate would visit the spot, that he might be the better able to decide. It was understood that the penalty and expenses would not-he pressed. MANSION-HOUSE.--Yesterday a young female named Mary jam Dixon, who is about Q 3 years of age, was brought before Aldermen HUMORS . and LUCAS, who sat for the Lord Mayor, under the following circumstances:— The young female, who Was pale and wan, and evidenkly in a tute of the great.eat exhaustion, was dressed in faded clothes, • and the manner in which she answered the first questions put to her, induced the worthy Magistrates to have her removed from the bar, where the applicants are ordinarily placed, and to give her a chair near them. Collins, the beadle of Wa%rook Ward, stated that he was on duty early that morning, when he found the young female sitting un the steps of a house in Charlotte-place, near the Mansion house. She had evidently been out in the rain during the whole Of the previous night, and was in such a state of exhaustion front want and suffering, that she could scarcely give any account of herself. He took her home, and gave her some food and apparel, for she was in a state of the utmost destitution. In answer to the questions put to her by the worthy magis trate, she now stated that she was born at Amiens, in France, and educated in Dublin, where her family resided, at No. 12, Marlborough-street, Great Britain-street. Her father had bean an officer of the 8211 Regiment of Foot, but he was cashiered by a court-martial, in consequence of a blow given in a fray to a brother officer. He died in 1811, and the circumstances of the family after that event 'became very reduced. In the course of last year, her mother took her brother to Scotland, with the view of getting him educated and settled there. She had some money with her for the purchase of some goods of Scotch manu facture iii order to carry on a small business in Dublin. They were, however, both lost in the Comet steam-vessel. Being thus left an orphan, and without relations, as her only brother, who had been in the navy, and served on board the Nimrod, the Telegraph, and the Impregnable; had gone out to South America in the year 1816, and was never since heard of, she took a situa tion with a lady. The lady died recently, and the young sufferer, who had previously field the situation of governess, now deemed it advisable to seek the aid of some persons in London who were previously 'acquainted with her family. She, however, only knew the address of one lady. After her passage front Dublin, she camel to town by the caravan, and arrived on Saturday. She then die covered that the lady whose address she knew, had left town nearly ' two years. She had not sufficient money to procure herself a lodg ing, and she was compelled to wander about the streets. On the fol lowing day, she sought about, in the hope of meeting with sonic persons who were known to her, until she became almost bewil dered. Having heard of the benevolence of Mrs. Fry, she found out her residence, and addressed a letter to her, stating her cir cumstances. She was compelled to wander in the streets, and seek occasional rest on some steps, front which she was constantly driven by the watchmen, and other officers, who told her to seek admission in another parish. When, on the following day, she applied at Mrs. Fry's residence, she was answered, " We can give you no relief." She was now in a state of the greatest misery : she had parted with all her slender stock of clothes to obtain food. She tried to obtain acmes to the Lord Mayor on the (lay before yesterday, but was prevented by the crowd. She went to the Compter at night, and besought admission from the inclemency of the weather, but there she was told she could not be admitted unless she was apprehended and brought thither by an officer. She became delirious, and such was her despair at one time, that she thought of suicide, when religion came to her aid. After hav ing wandered about the *tress during the whole of Thursday night, she sunk down upon some steps, where the officer who hail brought her before them found leer. • The unfiwtuttate young girl answered with the greatest clear ness every question that was put to her, The two worthy Alder men subscrilwd fur her present relief, but expressed their per plexity as to what asylum they could send her to, 'They were informed that there was a society, called the Provi sional Protection Society, conducted entirely by Ladies, which, though one of the least ostentatious, was invariably the most ser viceable in cases of an extraordinary nature. Alderman Lucas immediately went to seek Mrs. Hicks, of Cheapaide, the Secretary of the Society. In the course of the afternoon he returned, and expressed his regret that he had, after a diligent search, been unsuccessful. It so chanced that that lady, and others of the Society, were all out of town. The Governor of the Compter was then requested to take her under his protection, and treat her with all the care which her situation rendered necessary, until some mans comb' be found of providing for her. She expressed her gratitude to the Magistrates in an impressive manner, and was conducted to the Comptero We were given to understand by the Governor, that the turn key, in refusing her admission, sided in compliance with an im perative order from the Magistrates. The applications for admis sion are often very numerous there, and the olficere are seldom men who are able to distinguish such a case as. the above from one of common mendicancy. TIT FOR TAT.--The following ludicrous occur rence took place a few days since in a fashionable watering place not quite two hundred miles from Cheltenham. It is known to the generality of worldly people that there are such useful ap *degas to the proCess of the civil law as Sheri ff s ' Offi cers, vulgarly called Bailiffs. Two of these professors resided in the town to whidt we allude, and very naturally regarded each other with some little feeling, in which jealousy was nr - s. the least powerful. By some eeeident, one whom we shall name A. was called upon to visit the other, B. in his !Alicial capacity, and having made good his caption, lie said after some time, "Come along, Mr. it., it's time for you to come along with me. I can't stay any longer for you—so come !" The prisoner, who had borne this exercise of " brief authority" with all the sang frond imaginable, coolly replied, "Well, I think it is time, my boy, but it would be just as well for you to wait a little longer." " Oh, no," said A., " I have waited long enough al ready." " Th en ," retorted t h e ot h er , " we'll stay very COlll- Portable to ge th er , f or I h ave got a writ very much at your service," Anil so saying, he produced the legal document, and took the cap tor captive, to his no small mortification and surprise, but to the amusement of those who witnessed the novel scene. PRACTICABILI TY OP A CANAL BETWEEN THIS PACIFIC AND Anasittc„.....The province of Choco, in the king dom of New Grenada, contains, in the opinion of De Humboldt, a line of country of about eighty leagues, through which a canal could be cut, but which would nut be applicable to vessels of burden, as the mouth of the Arato, or river Darien, has only six feet water over it This seems the only part of America in which the chain of the Andes is entirely broken. The following is curious fact, which may interest some of our readers the interior of the provin ce of Choco, the small ravino of Rue bra& de la Ritspitilura unites the neighbouring sources of the Rio de Noanatna, called also Rio San Juan, and the small river Quito. The latter, the 'Rio Andegeds, and the Rio Zititra, form the Rio d'Atrato, which discharges itself into the Atlantic Ocean, while the Rio San Juan flows into the South Sea. A monk of great Curd of th e v ill age o f N ov ita, employ e d hi s parishioner, a to ct , i i vity ig: anal' canal in the ravine De la Ritspathira, by means of which, when the rains are abundant, canoes loaded with cocoa pass from sea t o sm. Th i s interior communication has existed since 1784, unknown in Europe. The small canal of Raspadura unites, on the Coasts of the two oceans, two points seventy-five leagues distant from one another.--MontAll/ Arugazino. CAPTAIN MAITLAND'S NARRATIVE. Captain Maitland, the commander of the Bellero phon, the ship which first received Buonaparte after his flight from France, has published a curious narra tire of all that passed on board his ship on that occa sion. At present we have only room for the follow. ing portrait of Buonaparte "Napoleon Buonaparte, when he came on board the Belle rophon, on the 15th of July, 1815, wanted exactly one month of completing his forty-sixth year, being born the 15th of August, 1769. He was then a remarkably strong, well-built man, about five feet seven inches high, his limbs particularly well formed, with a fine ancle and very small foot, of which hi seemed rather vain, as he always wore, while on board the ship, silk stockings and shoes. His hands were also very small, and had the plumpness of a woman's rather than the robust ness of a man's. His eyes light gray, teeth good ; and when he smiled, the 'expression of his Countenance was highly pleas- ing; when under the . influence ,of disappointment, however, it assumed a dark gloomy cast His hair was of a very dark brown, nearly approaching to black, and though a little thin on the top and front, had not a, gray hair amongst it. His complexion was a very uncommon one, being of a light salloW colour, differing from almost any other I ever met with. From hie having become .corpulent, he had lost much of his per sonal activity, and, if we are to give credit to those who at tended him, a very considerable portion of hie mental energy was also gone. It is certain his habits were very lethargic while he was on board the Bellerophon, for though he went to bed between eight and nine o'clock in the evening, and did not rise till about the same bout• in the morning, he frequently fell asleep on the sofa in the cabin in the course of the day. His general appearance was that of a man rather older than he then was. His manners were extremely pleasing and affable ; he joined in every conversation, related numerous anecdfites, and endeavour ed in every way to promote good humour; he even admit ted his attendants to great familiarity, and I saw one or two instances of their contradicting him in the most direct terms, though they generally treated him with much respect. He possessed, to a wonderful degree, a facility in making a fa vourable impression upon those with whom he entered into conversation : this appeared to me to be accomplished by turning the subject to matters he supposed the person he was addressing was well acquainted with, and on which he could show himself to advantage. This had the effect of putting him in good humour with himself; after which it was not a very difficslt matter to treader a part of that feeling to the person who had oc casioned it. Lord Keith appears to have formed a very high opinion of the fascination of his conversation, and expressed it very emphatically to me, after he had seen him. Speaking of his wish for an interview with the Prince Regent, D—n the fellow,' he said, ' if he had obtained an interview with his Royal Highness, in half an hour they would have been the beet friends in England.' He appeared to have great command of temper, for though no man could have greater trials than fell to his lot dur ing the time he remained on board the Bellerophon, he never, in my presence, or as far as I know, allowed a fretful or captious expression to escape him. Even the day he received the notifica tion from Sir Henry Bunhury, that it was determined to send him to St. Helena, he chatted and conversed with the same cheerfulness as usual. It has been asserted that he was acting a part all the time he was on board the ship; but still, even allow ing that to be the case, nothing but great command of temper could have enabled him to have sustained such a part for so many days, in his situation."
